Tributes
May 14, 1936 – July 28, 2022
Corinne was born in Queens NY where she met and married her sweetheart Henry (Harry) Roe, and
began their long life together. They raised their two sons on Long Island, settling in Smithtown, NY.
Corinne had a gregarious personality and made friends wherever she went. She worked in a clock shop,
tended her garden, made her house a home and kept close to her sister Jane and family who lived
nearby.
Upon retirement, Corinne and Harry moved to Fort Wright KY where Corinne was a member of the New
Friends of Northern Kentucky for many years. She loved meeting new people and lunching with friends
at the Greyhound Grill. She was kind, generous and thoughtful – she always put her family first. She
spoke her mind in that unmistakable NY accent and had a dry, wonderful sense of humor. When her
health began to fail, she used to joke that she was “on the check-out line”, then on July 28 th , 2022 she
entered ‘the express line’ when unexpectedly, her heart gave out in the morning.
Corinne leaves two sons, Thomas (Joy) and David, grandchildren Wilhelmina and Matthew, nieces Kathy,
Patricia and Veronica. Corinne was predeceased by her husband Harry and sister Jane.
Services are being planned for a later date.

From Gayle and Brett
Corinne is my sister’s mother-in-law. I feel blessed to have known her so, over many many entertaining family dinners. She had a very unique personality. Headstrong, smart and hilarious in a way that wasn’t boisterous. My sister and Corrine (her mother-in-law shared a close and special bound. That speaks volumes.
We love you, Corrine. You are free to dance again.
